Overview: Philadelphia, 1938 – Joe works for an American charity that helps bring food and medicine to the children of Europe. His ‘gift of the gab’ is legendary. His professional life is a resounding success but behind the scenes his marriage is a sham. Wanting more, he persuades kind-hearted Elizabeth – a hospital administrator – to come and work with him in Spain, where a civil war rages, and together they set up a children’s hospital. With a ragtag bunch of medics and humanitarians the hospital takes shape and they start saving lives together.
France, 1940 – As fascism takes hold and Europe is pulled into the whirlpool of World War II, their charmed life turns into a fight for survival. Elizabeth must relocate to the South of France, where the children of Europe have never been in more danger, and soon she is caught up in the fight to save a few from the Holocaust. She and Joe must use every gift and every talent to help those suffering around them. But in doing so, will they be parted forever?
An epic story unfolds, spanning the last year of the Spanish Civil War, the conquest of Vichy France and the ultimate triumph of the Allies. The beauty of love and the harshness of war, in one inspiring story.
